STNA #10 was observed donning a gown and gloves prior to entering Resident #34's room. Interview on 12/06/23 at 9:56 A.M. with STNA #10 revealed she did not know where the eye protection was prior to entering Resident #34's room. STNA #10 checked the four carts on the hall and none contained eye protection.
